Two Men Killcd.-There was Il
terrible accident at c harlestown in this
county on Wednesday. While Mr..
James Miller and Mr.. Caleb Campbell
were crossing the Valley Branch of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad in sleigh
the,locomotive Of a passenger train struck
and instantly killed them both. They
did not see or hear the train until too
late. The occupants Of sleigh in front
of them endeavored to warn the unfor-
tunate men but their signals were mis-
understood, and in another minute the
locomotive had struck the sleigh. Mr.
Miller was thrown some distance, being
instantly killed, while Campbell met an
even worse fate He was caught under
the wheels and his body was cut and
mutilated in terrible way. Both men
were married and had families. Mr..
Campbell was a son.in-law of Mr.. John
Wintermoyer. of this vicinity. Mr..
Miller was a son Of Mr.. John Il. Miller,
and 4 nephew Of Mr.. Geo. w. Hum
rickhouse, of shspherdstown.

A Good Idea.-The Town Council

A Good Idea.-The Town Council
of Char!estown has prepared for pre-
sentation to the Legislature an amend
ment to the town charter that no person
shall be allowed to vote at a corpora
ton election who has not paid his taxes
at least five days before said election.
This is an admirable idea, and we should
like to see similar provision in Shep-
herdstown's charter. Ii would effectu-
ally prevent the trading in votes that
has become so common at our municipal
elections.

A Runaway Train.-A singu-

lar accident happened last week on The
Shenandoah Valley Railroad. As the
north bound passenger train, No. 2. was
nearing Buchanan, a station this side OF
Roanoke, Va, about five O'Clock some
one noticed that the hose attached to
the air-brakes was leaking. The train
was stopped, and the entire crew left
the train for the purpose of repairing
the leak, leaving oil board the passen-
gers, the express messenger, the postal
clerk and the newsbey. The brakeman
was sent back to fas a freight that was
coming in the rear. The freight soon
made it's appearance, and not having
been notified In time to stop on the
heavy downward grade, plunged into
the hindmost car Of the passenger train,
which was a Pullman, wrecking the
greater part of it ard badly injuring
the rest Of the train.
The conclusion was so great that the
throttle valve Of the passenger engine
was thrown wide open, and its train
leaped forward with an impetus of over
mile minute. so sudden was the
start that the crew was unable to board.
The wildcat train ran at fearful rate
of speed until the steam became eT-
hausted, when it came to q stand-still
about fifteen miles from the place OF the
collision. During its flight the passen-
gers were thrown about in their seats,
and were almost wild with terror. APP
pretending that some south-bound train
might collide with the runaway after 1t
had stopped, all the passengers left the
cars and built fires in the fields to await
the freight, which they thought would
bring up the crew Of their train. After
the lapse of over an hour the rear train
hove in sight, and the passenger engi-
neer and fireman were soon ut their
places. The brakeman who had been
sent back to flag the freight no sooner
saw that collision was inevitable than
he struck for the woods, and it is said
he has not yet turned up. Several q
the passengers were severely bruised
but mono seriously injured by the col
lision. The crew of the runaway train
had an investigation before the railroad
authorities, and were suspended.
There was another accident late Sat-
urday night. While No. 4 north-bound
passenger train was nearing st. James
station about IL o'clock the rails spread
and the entire train was thrown from
the track and the cars upset. Brake
man c. w. Crow, of Shepherdstown,
had his hand badly cut by being thrown
through window, and other persons
were slightly hurt-nons seriously.
While Mr.. John Curran, also of this
place, was assisting in the clearing
